Description

Blistering dark humour meets existential crisis in this witty and thought-provoking tale. A young philosopher navigates the tribulations of adolescence, from finals season to first gigs, all while grappling with the abyss of nihilist philosophy. As he falls in with a group of like-minded outcasts, they nickname him Nietzsche - a moniker that suits his braininess and bleak outlook on life. With their metal band, Nietzsche and the Burbs, they experiment with sex, drugs, and ideas, leading to some surprising conclusions about the nature of youth and rebellion. This absorbing story is both laugh-out-loud funny and a stirring reminder of the universal tragedy of growing up.
